Ok so after the wait finally NS2 is here and i recently purchased it.

i LOVE it, its everything i hoped gameplay wise!

BUT

1. 90% of the times i join a server i get disconnected
2. Whenever i join a server that runs the summit map my screen just goes black when i get connected to the server. all i can see is "build 123456" up in the corner.

Can anyone help out with this because i really want to be able to play!

    Hi there!

    Build 229 is slated to release on Monday, which may fix connection issues.

    As for your second point, I suggest trying out Steam's "verify game cache integrity." I'm guessing that NS2_Summit was corrupted during your download.

    I would suggest the same as Squishpoke. I would say to anyone having map glitches, update your GPU drivers, and verify your game's cache.

    There's a tech support forum for this kind of stuff. In general it's best to post there
    A: The people who respond there are actually good at this kind of stuff
    B: Liars and idiots get removed there
    C: You're much more likely to find someone else who had the same issue as you do and was able to fix is (meaning you don't even have to actually post)
